FIRST Choice has reported “encouraging signs” in booking levels for summer over the last couple of weeks.

The operator said despite customers postponing their bookings during the Iraqi conflict, summer bookings were returning, but first half losses are still expected to be at the levels announced in March.

In a trading statement issued today, First Choice said: “Whilst mindful of the challenging and unpredictable economic environment, there have been encouraging signs in booking levels for the summer across the Group’s businesses, over the last two weeks.”

Interim results for the six months ended April 30 will be announced on June 10.
